why getframe function makes a strange behaves when I used it in my GUI ?
I call it to capture the plotted animation on my axes in the following GUI:
getframe(handles.myAxes)
but when I combined these frames in one single video file using VideoWriter this is what I get !
you can notice that getframe doesn't capture my entire axes but a portion from it plus some area from the container panel, how to fix this issue ?

I beleive there is a bug with this. I am on 2024a OS X, and had a similar problem. For whatever reason moving the figure window around the screen after it's create seemed to fix the problem. After giving it a wiggle getframe started behaving as expected.

Hi Osama Alkurdi,
I faced the same issue in MATLAB R2024a, but I notice that the issue is fixed in R2024b.
Hope this helps!
